''Viewing a Penny''' I liked this demo because it is much more image based then most of the work we've done so far.  I found it really interesting that you could take the height of the penny (despite its tiny dimensions) and make a somewhat topography graph of it using a few lines of code.  The last section of the demo where you displayed it on a 3D plot (after plugging it into matlab myself) you could fool around with the dimensions to view it at different angles.  I just thought it was a very cool new side to matlab that I had never seen in use.

Viewing a Penny' I liked this demo because it is much more image based then most of the work we've done so far. I found it really interesting that you could take the height of the penny (despite its tiny dimensions) and make a somewhat topography graph of it using a few lines of code. The last section of the demo where you displayed it on a 3D plot (after plugging it into matlab myself) you could fool around with the dimensions to view it at different angles. I just thought it was a very cool new side to matlab that I had never seen in use.
